Prof. dr. Christophe Moreno, M.D.
Scientific Officer
Christophe is a professor in gastroenterology and hepatology and clinical director of the liver unit at CUB Hôpital Erasme, Brussels, Belgium. He is an important consultant to the NASH Clinical team.
Genome-wide association studies have uncovered robust and reproducible associations between several genetic variations and the natural history of NAFLD. During this webinar, Professor Eric Trépo reviewed these findings that have provided compelling new insights into the biology of NAFLD and highlighted potentially attractive pharmaceutical targets. Professor Eric Trépo also discussed potential applications and limitations of genetic variations for risk prediction in this disease
